mix together and toast in a pan in the oven until crispy I baked at 200 about 10 mins max

13 g golden syrup 2 points, heated in microwave about 12 seconds, added the toasted crumbs, press down into a dish

1 ripe small banana mashed with half tub quark, tsp sweetener, about 1/4 tsp ginger, vanilla
